PREFACE

Some astrologers hardly understand my book, Jaimini Sutramritam, a commentary both in Sanskrit and English. Of course it is just hearsay, may or may not be true. However one finds intricacy in Jaimini school of thought, unless one goes thoroughly through the Sanskrit commentary and Vriddha karikas as well. I have prepared this book as such that the astrologer could grasp easily and correctly the aspects, argalas, arudhas. raja yogas, ayur dasas, phalitha dasas etc. also because of charts illustrated where ever necessary. Forsure this could be a guide to every aspirant to Jaimini predictivity. For more details and Dasas the reader would well refer my Jaimini Sutramritam published by Sagar Publications.

Chapter- 1 BASICS

The twelve Zodiacal signs are classified into three categories. They are the cardinal (Chara). the fixed (Sthira), the dual (Ubhaya). Aries (Mesha). Cancer (Kataka), Libra (Tula) and Capricorn (Makara) are the cardinal signs (Chara rasi's). Taurus (Vrishabha). Leo (Simha), Scorpio (Vrischika) and Aquarius (Kumbha) are the fixed signs.Gemini (Mithuna), Virgo (Kanya), Sagittarius (Dhanus) and Pisces (Meena) are the dual signs (Ubhaya).

A cardinal sign aspects (looks at) the three fixed signs leaving its 2nd sign. For example Arics, the cardinal sign aspects the three signs viz Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius leaving its 2nd sign Taurus the fixed sign. A fixed sign aspects the three cardinal signs leaving its 12th sign which is a fixed sign. For example Taurus the fixed sign aspects the three cardinal signs viz Cancer. Libra C apricorn leaving its 12th sign. A dual sign aspects the three dual signs. For example Gemini aspects Virgo. Sagittarius. Pisces. Thus the aspect of other signs too could be understood. See the table given below.

and the Sun and Mercury.

In the chart-1, the lord of the sign occupied by the Moon is Saturn aspecting the Moon. So Saturn is the Kevala (A.P-3).The Moon aspects the Ascendant (Scorpio) and its 7th (Scorpio). So the Moon is the A-P-2 .The Moon aspects N.L in the Navamsa chart also. So the Moon becomes the Yogada. (A.P-5). The Moon aspects the D.L also in the direct- reverse Drekkana chart. So finally the Moon becomes the Yogada. (A.P-6)

Application of Aspecting planets: (Excluding Rahu and Ketu):

Among the aspecting planets each gives a better yoga than its previous gives. In case no planet aspects the Ascendant a planet aspecting the 5th house becomes the aspecting planet. If no planet aspects the Ascendant and the 5th house. a planet aspecting the 9th house of the Ascendant becomes the aspecting planet. This is how the A.P-1 is found. Suppose a planet does not aspect the Ascendant but aspects the 5th house. Ifthis planet aspects the

6 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology 5th house of N.L in the navamsa chart or aspects the 5th house of D.L in the drekkana chart this aspecting planet also becomes the Yogada (A.P-5). If a planet aspects the 5th house of the Ascendant, 5th house of N.L, and 5th house of D.L in the respective charts the same planet becomes the Yogada (A.P-6). Among the aspecting planets the A.P-6 gives the the best yoga to the native of the chart. An aspecting planet in exaltation in rasi chart gives certainly the Raja yoga. But Aries is deprived of this chance as no planet in exaltation aspects it. The more the number of planets aspecting the Ascendant, the greater the Rajayoga.

Raja yoga or Dhanayoga is certain: by a debilitated planet in the 6th. or 8th aspecting the Ascendant. by a debilitated planet in the 3rd or IIth aspecting the Ascendant. by a debilitated planet being the lord of the 6th or the 8th of the Ascendant aspecting the Ascendant.

Chapter-2 ARGALAS & RAJA YOGAS

The argalas should be reckoned from the aspecting planet classified in chapter-1. The correct knowledge of the argalas enables one to presage the professional, financial and social status from the horoscopic chart. It could be as well said that the argala concept is the linchpin of the entire gamut of predictions. The argala signs are of three categories. 1.Principal Argala Signs. 2. Secondary Argala Signs. 3. Specific Argala Sign. The 2nd, 4th, and 11th signs from the aspecting planet are the pincipal argala signs (p.a.s). The 12th, 10th and 3rd signs from the aspecting planet are the virodhargala signs (v.a.s) of the 2nd, 4th, and 11th argala signs respectively. The 5th sign from the aspecting planet is the secondary argala sign while the 9th sign is the virodhargala sign. The 9th sign from the aspecting planet is the secondary argala sign while the 5th sign is the virodhargala sign. Category Argala signs (A.S) Virodhargala signs (V.A.S) Principal 2nd 12th 4th 10th 11th 3rd Secondary 5th 9th 9th 5th Specific 3rd Nil By three or more malefics

Subhargala Yogas: (P.A.S=Principal Argala sign) The planets occupying the 2nd, 4th, 11th signs (P.A.S) can form the subhargala yogas when the corresponding virodhargala signs viz 12th, 10th. 3rd lie vacant. It means that if both the A.S and V.A.S are occupied the planets, the argalas formed are only aabhasa doing no good. Suppose, if a planet occupies the 2nd house from an aspecting planet, Subhargala yoga forms. This

Argalas & Raja Yogas 13 gives dhana yoga. But this gets cancelled if the 12th sign also of the aspecting planet is occupied by a planet or planets. Similar is with the 4th and 11 th argala signs. How ever the number of planets if present in the V.A.S is less than those in the P.A.S. the subhargala yoga does not get marred. If the 5th sign (S.A.s) from an aspecting planet is occupied only by the benefics.while the 9th sign(V.A.S) lies vacant, a subhargala yoga forms.Similarly if the 9th sign is occupied by the benefics, while the 5th lies vacant, a subhargala yoga forms. However if the occupant is a malefic exalted in 5th or 9th, while the other falls vacant subhargala yoga forms. If the 3rd sign from the aspecting planet is occupied by three or more malefics, a nirabhasaargalayoga forms, irrespective of the planets present or absent in the 11th sign. Thus we find the three different categories of the argala signs are involved differently in the formation of subhargala yogas, one by the malefics or benefics or both the other by the benefics and the 3rd by the malefics only. N.B. Two points worth remembering-1 .Rahu or Ketu in the argala signs do not contribute to the formation of the subhargala yogas. 2. They certainly mar the yoga if associated with the planets in the argala signs.3.The argala signs should be invariably reckoned from an aspecting planet. Assessment of subhargala potential: 1. Assess the subhargala potential by the six orders of the aspecting planet the 1 st being the lowest the 6th being the highest. 2.Assess the subhargala potential by the merits and demerits of the aspecting planet. Merits: 1 .Exaltationor own house position of the aspecting planet. 2. Association of the Moon with the aspecting planet. 3. Association of the exalted planet with the A.P Demerits: 1. The subhargala potential falls if Rahu is associated with the aspecting planet. 2. The subhargala potential decreases by the association of decreases by the association of Ketu with the aspecting planet.

14 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology 3. The subhargala potential decreases if the aspectingv planet is debilitated. 4. Rahu in the 5th or 9th from the aspecting planet reduces the subhargala potential. 5. Rahu in the 8th or 12th from the aspecting planet is not a welcome feature. The subhargala potential can also be classified into three orders: Superior, Medium, Ordinary. Superior order: 1. Involvement of the benefics in the argala signs. 2. Involvement of three or more planets in the argala signs.3. Involvement of the planets in the three argala signs Medium order: 1. Involvement of benefics and malefics in the argala signs. 2. Involvement of two planets in the argala signs. 3.Involvementof two planets in any two argala signs. Ordinary: 1.Involvement of malefics in the argala sign. 2. Involvement of one planet in the argala sign. Reckoning principle: Reckon the argala signs in the regular order from the aspecting planets only, but never from the signs to judge the subhargala yogas. Judge them if formed by the reverse reckoning of the argala signs from the aspecting planet placed in an even sign.

Results of subhargala yogas in general: Good position in life; financial status and reputation. Benefics give very sound financial position. Both benefics and malefics indicate unsteady financial status. Malefics indicate the average position.

In the chart-1 the Ascendant is Aquarius (fixedsign) aspected by the Sun in Cancer (cardinal sign) and no other planet aspects the Ascendant. So the Sun is the aspecting planet (A.P-1).From the Sun the 2nd sign (Leo) is occupied by Mars, Mercury and Venus. the 5th sign(Scorpio) is occupied by Jupiter(benefic) and the 11th sign is occupied by the Moon and Saturn in Taurus. So the three argala signs viz 2nd, 5th and 11 th are involved. All the three are the fixed signs and six planets are involved in the three argala to give the subhargala yoga. The planets involved in the three argala signs are both benefics and malefics. Note three argala signs gave the subhargala yoga because the corresponding V.A.S are not occupied by the planets. The chart-1 belongs to B.V.Raman who was the doyen of astrologers. Chart-2: D.O.B=11-10-1942 at 4pm.

The native is an author of books on astrology and is a Sanskrit poet. Note the 11th and 3rd houses from the Moon (A.P-6) are occupied by Saturn and Moon and hence the principal argala rajayoga is marred. Argala Rajayogas: Poornargala Tripadargala Ardhargala Padargala

1. Poornargala Rajayoga:

This is in the case of the yogada(A.P-3.A.P-4,A.P-5,A.P-6) in a cardinal sign. Reckon the argala signs from the yogada or kevala. If any three argala signs coinciding with the cardinal, fixed, and dual signs are occupied by the planets the s.a.y so formed is called the Poornargala Rajayoga This yoga is effective when the corresponding v.a.s lies vacant.

Argalas & Raja Yogas 17

2. Tripadargala Rajayoga:

This is the case of the yogada in a fixed sign. Reckon the argala signs from the yogada. If any two argala signs coinciding with the cardinal and fixed, or cardinal and dual or fixed and dual occupied by the planets thes.a.y. so formed is known as Tripadargala Rajayoga. This is effective if the corresponding v .. a .. s. lie vacant or when unobstructed by the weaker planets or less number of planets in the v .. a.s. The Tripadargala Rajayoga becomes the Poornargala Rajayoga when another argala sign also is involved with the planets in it.

3. Ardhargala Rajayoga:

This is the case of the yogada in a dual sign. If the 2nd or 4th or 11 th argala sign is occupied by the planets, the s.a.y becomes the Ardhargala Rajayoga. If one or more argala sign is involved it becomes the Tripadargala Rajayoga. If two argala signs are involved the Ardhargala becomes the Poornargala Raja yoga. 4. Padargala Rajayoga: If the 5th or 9th argala sign from the yogada is occupied by the benefic planets or by a malefic planet in exaltation. while the corresponding v.a.s lies vacant a Padargala Raja yoga could be formed.The involvement of the padargala would in any case catalyse the class of the Argala Raja yoga to give good reputation. Persons born in Poornargala and Tripadargala Rajayogas become distinguished personalities at national and international level. Those born in Ardhargala and Padargala Rajayogas will be placed well in life with wealth. The following are the extended principles of Ardhargala and Padargala Raja yogas. 1.From the A.P. the benefics in the I Oth and 5th or 9th when the 4th lies vacant 2. Benefics in the 7th and 5th or 9th. 3. By exalted yogada. 4. Yogada associated with the Moon.

In the Rasi chart-4 the Ascendant is aspected by the Moon.

The Moon aspects D.L in the drekkana chart also. Hence the

Moon becomes the yogada (A.P-5).From the Moon the 2nd is

occupied by the Sun. the 4th is occupied by Saturn and the 9th is

occupied by Jupiter. Thus the cardinal, the fixed, and the dual

argalas are involved. Intact any two argala signs will do well for

the Tripadargala Raja yoga because the yogada is in the fixed sign. Since the third different argala sign also is involved the Poornargala Rajayoga is formed. Gandhiji was one of the great world personalities and is venerated as Mahatma.

Ascendant = Cancer 24d.25m, Sun=7s. 1 d.43m. In the chart-

5 of Pandit Nehru. the Ascendant is Cancer aspected by the Sun.

The N.L in the navamsa chart is also aspected by the Sun. So the

Sun is the yogada (A.P-5). Reckoned reversely from the Sun the

2nd A.S is occupied by Mercury and Venus, the 4th A.S is

occupied by Saturn and the 5th A.S is occupied by the Moon.

Since the yogada (A.P-5) is in the fixed sign and two cardinal

signs and one fixed sign are involved the Tripadargala becomes

the Poornargala Raja yoga.

So the Sun and the Moon are A.P-5.from which the 2nd A.S is occupied Venus and the4th A.S is occupied by Sun Mars and Mercury. The Moon is in the dual sign and since two argala signs are involved Tripadargala Rajayoga is formed. The. Chart-14 belongs to P.V Narsimha Rao

24 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology the sober Statesman from South India was the Prime Minister of India for a full term. A powerful Rajayoga is also formed by the same planet aspecting the Ascendant. Hora Lagna and Ghatika Lagna. Hora Lagna is of two kinds: 1. Parivrittidwaya Hora Lagna. 2. Savayava Hora Lagna. 1. The twelve signs have 24 Horas. The first 6 signs from Aries to Virgo will have 12 Horas and the same are repeated from Libra to Pisces. It means thus-The 1 st Hora of Aries is Aries and the 2nd Hora of Aries is Taurus. The 1st Hora of Taurus is Gemini and 2nd Hora of Taurus is Cancer. See the table below for Privrittidwaya Hora Lagna.

Sign 1st Hora (Id-15d) 2nd Hora (15d-30m) Aries Aries Taurus

Taurus Gemini Cancer Gemini Leo Virgo

Cancer Libra Scorpio Leo Sagittarius Capricorn Virgo Aquarius Pisces

Libra Aries Taurus Scorpio Gemini Cancer Sagittarius Leo Virgo Capricorn Libra Scorpio Aquarius Sagittarius Capricorn Pisces Aquarius Pisces

In the chart-14 of P. V. Ascendant is Virgo 24d.So Virgo is in the 2nd Hora Pisces so Parivrittitrya Hora lagna is Pisces. Savayava Hora lagna (Calculation): Time of birth is 1 .Pm. So birth hours=7hr-27m.Sun rise=5-33 Sunset=5-33 Diurnal duration= 13hr-05m. So 13.05 divided by 12 therefore Q=1 hr.05mts 7hrs-27mts divided by 1 hr-05mts Q=6. Hence the quotient 6+1=7 So the 7th sign from the Ascendant is Pisces which becomes the Savayava Hora Lagna. It is 26d. 13m.

Argalas & Raja Yogas 25

In the chart of PV a grand Rajayoga is formed by the aspect of three planets (Mars. Mercury Sun) to the three Lagnas (Ascendant. Hora Lagna and Ghatika Lagna) Some special Lagnas -: Divya Lagna: Add the longitudes of Ascendant lord and yogada or kevala. Subtract12 signs if the sum exceeds 12. Count the number from the Ascendant in the order of padakrama.If both the yogada and kevala are absent take the lord of the Moon-Sign. Ex: The Ascendant is Scorpio .Longitude of Mars=2s.26d. Longitude of Kevala=7s. 11 d.On adding we get 10s.7d.Sothe 11 th sign by padakrama from the Ascendant is Capricorn (Scorpio, Aries, Virgo, Aquarius. Cancer, Sagittarius, Taurus, Libra, Pisces, Leo and Capricorn, 11th) In the chart of P. V the Ascendant is Virgo, Yogada is the Sun. Longitude of Mercury (Ascendant lord)=2s.27d.22m Longitude of Yogada (Sun) =2s. 13d.16m On adding we get5s. 10d.38m. So the 6th sign from Virgo in padakrama is Gemini which becomes Divya Lagna.Rajayoga is attained if Divya Lagna is occupied or aspected by an exalted planet or benefic planets.Divya Lagna connected with malefics or debilitated planets spoils the Rajayoga and gives troubles. In the horoscope of Pandit Nehr'i the Ascendant is Cancer and the yogada is the Sun. Longitude of Ascendant lord=3s. 17d.20m Longitude of the yogada =7s. 1 d.43m Onadding =10s.19d.03nı Hence the 11th sign from the Ascendant (Cancer) is Taurus which becomes Divya lagna aspected by the benefics Venus. Mercury. Moon.

Ex: Longitude of the Ascendant lord=2s.26d Longitude of Moon =9s.3d Total =11 s.29d Now 11 s.29d+2s.26d (longitude Ascendant lord)=14s.25d- I2=2s.25d. Gemini the third sign in the zodiac becomes Tripravana lagna. Tripravanalagna occupied by the benefics or by exalted planet gives Rajayoga. If it is occupied by malefics it gives poverty.

Chapter-3 KARAKAMSA

Jaimini Maharshi gives us only 4 fixed karakas.They are Mars.MercuryJupiter and Venus. Mars is the fixed karaka for sister,wife's brother, younger brother and mother Mercury is the fixed karaka for uncles, relatives, step mother. For father's father. husband and son Jupiter is the fixed karaka. Venus is the fixed karaka for wife, parents, mother-in-law, father-in-law and mother's father. The variable karakas are 7in number.They are atma, amatya, bhratru, matru, Putra, jnati, dara. Find out the longitudes of seven planets-Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus.The planet attaining the highest longitude is the atmakaraka. The remaining six planets become the six karakas in the descending order of degrees. Hence according to the decreasing order of degrees, the variable karakas are atma, amatya bhratru, matru, putra, jnati, dara. Ex: Sun=1s.8d, Moon=9s.3d, Mars=2s.27d, Mercury=1s.7d, Jupiter=1ls.4d, Venus=2s. 18d, Saturn=7s. 12d. So Mars attained the highest degrees (27d). Thus Mars becomes the atma. Venus is the amatya, Satum is the bhratru, Sun is the matru, Jupiter is the jnati and the Moon is the dara. Sometimes the 7 karakas may have to be determined among the 8 planets when two planets attain equal number of degrees. Here Rahu also is considered. But Rahu is not eligible to become the atma karaka. The sign occupied by the atmakaraka in the navamsa chart is known as karakamsa or karakamsa lagna.

Chapter- 4 ARUDHA

Arudha : The pada is widely known as the arudha lagna. Thenumber of signs from the sign to its lord's: placement should be counted again from the sign-lord to get the pada of the sign. This is the main principle for reckoning the arudha lagna.For example Aries is the Ascendant and its lord Mars is in Taurus. Since Taurusis the 2nd sign from Aries the 2nd sign again from Taurus is Gemini which becomes the lagna pada or arudha Lagna. Suppose Mars is in Gemini, the 3rd sign from Aries. Then Leo becomes the arudha lagna. Suppose Mars is in Cancer, the 4th from Aries. Then Libra becomes the arudha. That is how the arudha lagna is reckoned for all the houses. Exceptions: 1. If the lord of the ascendant is in the 4th house,the 4th house becomes the arudha lagna.2.If the lord of the Ascendant is in its 7th house the 10th house becomes. The arudha lagna.These two exceptions should be fairly adhered in the case of the dual signs.The following are the four cases of the first exception. 1.If the Ascendant is Gemini and if its lord ,Mercury is in Virgo, Virgo becomes the arudha lagna. 2 Gemini becomes.the arudha lagna if the Ascendant is inVirgo and if its lord, Mercury occupies the 4th house Gemini.Note thatGemini is the 4th sign from Virgo counted reversely because4 Virgo is an even sign. 3. Pisces becomes the arudha lagna if the Ascendant is Sagittarius if its lord Jupiter occupies the 4th house.Pisces. 4 Sagittarius becomes the arudha lagna if the Ascendant is Pisces and if its lordJupiter occupies the 4th house Sagittarius because Sagittarius is the 4th sign from Pisces counted reversely because Pisces is an even sign.

34

Arudha 35

The following are the four cases of the 2nd exception. 1. If the Ascendant is Gemini and if Mercury occupies its 7th Sagittarius the 10th house Pisces becomes the arudha lagna. 2.Ifthe Ascendant is Virgo and if Mercury occupies its 7th Pisces. the 10th house Sagittarius becomes becomes the arudha lagna. 3. If the Ascendant is Sagittarius and if Jupiter occupies its 7th house the 10th house Virgo becomes the arudha lagna. 4.If the Ascendantb is Pisces and if Jupiter occupies its 7th house .the 10th house Virgo becomes the arudha lagna. In Male Horoscopes :. If the Ascendant is an odd sign find out the arudha lagna of the Ascendant. If the Ascendant is an even sign find out the arudha lagna of its sammukha. Sign. For xample in male chart the Ascendant is Gemini. Then find out the arudha lagna of Gemini since Gemini is an odd sign. For example in male chart the Ascendant is Taurus. Then find out the arudha lagna of Libra (the sammukha sign of Taurus is Libra.) since the Ascendant (Taurus) is an even sign. In Female Horoscopes: If the Ascendant is an even sign, find out the arudha lagna of the Ascendant. If it is an even sign,find out the arudha lagna of its sammukha sign. The odd signs are Aries,Gemini,Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius. The even signs are Taurus, Cancer Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. Pairs of sammukha signs: Aries-Scorpio, Taurus-Libra. Cancer-Aqarius. Leo- Capricorn, Virgo-Gemini, Libra- Taurus. Scorpio-Aries, Sagittarius-Pisces, Capricorn- Leo, Aquarius-Cancer, Pisces - Sagittarius.

Chapter -7 LONGEVITY

Symbolic Terms :- Udaya chakra. Prakriti chakra, Vikriti chakra, Graha chakra and Padakrama. These are the five symbolic terms for reckoning of bhavas. sign-dasas dasa-years etc. Udaya chakra ;- the count or reckoning of bhavas, or sign- dasasetc directly whether from an odd sign or from an even sign is called the udaya chakra. Aries, Gemini, Leo Libra Sagittariusand Aquarius are the odd signs. Taurus. Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio Capricorn and Pisces are the even signs. Prakriti Chakra :- the count or reckoning of bhavas,dasasigns etc is direct from an odd sign while from an even sign it is reverse. Vikriti Chakra :- The count or reckoning of bhavas,dasa- signs etc is direct from an even sign and reverse from an odd sign. Graha Chakra :- The reckoning of bhavas or karakas from the sign-lord according to the udaya chakra in the order of planetary placement is called the graha chakra. for example, the lord of Ascendant is Mars.So Mars corresponds to tanu bhava.The planet next to him in Rasi chart corresponds to dhana bhava; the planet next to him corresponds to bhratru bhava; the planet next to him corresponds to matru bhava; the planet next corresponds to putra bhava, the planet next corresponds to jnati bhava ; the planet next corresponds to dara bhava; the planet next corresponds to ayur bhava; the planet next corresponds to bhagya bhava.Thus the nine planets in the direct order correspond to nine bhavas.Again the tanu bhava becomes rajya bhava; dhana bhava becomes ekadasa bhava and Jnati bhava becomes vyaya bhava.

Longevity 53 In the example rasi chart (section-l)the Ascendant is Scorpio.The lord of the Asc is Mars.

Prakriti chakra Padakrama 2. Vikritichakrapadakrama. The padakrama means the count of bhavas or dasa signs according to the movable fixed and dual signs. Prakriti chakra pada krama for movable signs-the count or reckoning is direct and regular for odd and movable signs and reverse for the even movable signs-for example we begin from Aries which is an odd sign. Then Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius. and Pisces are the twelve dasa signs. Suppose we count from Cancer. Then Cancer Gemini Taurus Aries Pisces Aquarius Capricorn Sagi- ttarius Scorpio Libra Virgo Leo are the twelve dasa signs reversely. Similarly the count could be direct from Libra and reverse from Capricorn. Prakriti chakra pada Krama for fixed signs- The count or reckoning is direct but 6th to 6th for odd and fixed signs, but reversely 6th to 6th for even fixed signs. For example-Leo is a fixed and odd sign. So Leo Capricom Gemini Scorpio Aries Virgo Aquarius Cancer Sagittarius Taurus Libra Pisces are the twelve dasa signs in the direct order of 6th to 6th. Suppose we count from Taurus which is a fixed and even sign Then Taurus Sagittarius Cancer Aquarius Virgo Aries Scorpio Gemini Capricorn. Leo Pisces Libra are the twelve dasa signs. in the reverse order of 6th to 6th. Similar is the case with Scorpio(even and fixed sign) and Aquarius (odd and fixed sign) Prakriti chakra padakrama for dual signs- The count or reckoning is direct in the order of 1.5,9 from the odd and dual signs but reverse in the order of 1, 5, 9 from the even and dual signs. For example -Gemini is an odd and dual sign; then Gemini, Libra. Aquarius, Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces, Leo, Sagittarius, Aries. Virgo, Capricorn. Taurus in the order of 1, 5, 9.

54 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology Suppose Virgo is the commencing dasa sign-then Virgo, Taurus, Capricorn. Leo. Aries Sagittarius. Cancer. Pisces, Scorpio Gemini, Aquarius. Libra are the twelve dasa signs in the reverse order of 1. 5, 9. Similar is the case of Sagittarius and Pisces. LONGEVITY -: Longevity is of three terms of life; they are long life middle life shortlife. Judge the term of life in the horoscope by the following three factors. 1. Ascendant lord and 8th house lord. 2. Ascendant and the Moon. 3. Ascendant and Hora Lagna. Find out the sign- positions of both in each factor mentioned. to ascertain the term of life. Movable &Movable -long life; Fixed &Dual -long life Movable & Fixed -middle life; Dual & Dual -middle life Fixed & Fixed - short life : Movable & Dual -short life Ascertain the term of life indicated by all the three factors or any two of the three. If all three factors disagree ascertain the term of life indicated by the Ascendant and Hora Lagna. If the Moon occupies the Ascendant or its 7th house decide the term of life indicated by the Ascendant and the Moon. To ascertain the term of life by Ascendant lord and 8th house lord make use of the specific reckoning of 8th house. The table is given below as a ready reckoner for it.

Scorpio Sagittarius Sagittarius Cancer Capricom Gemini Aquarius Capricom Pisces Leo In the example Rasi chart (section-1) the Ascendant is Scorpio. So the lord of the Asendant is Mars and the lord of the 8th house is Jupiter. The Ascendant lord Mars is in the dual sign Gemini and the lord of 8th houseJupiter is in Pisces the dual sign. Hence middle life is denoted. 2 Ascendant is Scorpio a fixed sign. The Moon is in Capricom a cardinal sign. Hence middle life is denoted. 3. Ascendant is Scorpio a fixed sign and Hora lagna is Gemini a dual sign Hence long life is denoted Among three factors two factors reveal middle life. Now judge whether there is Kakshya Vriddhi (increase of term of life) or Kakshya Hrasa (decrease of term of life) and finally whether there is long life. middle life, or short life.

Kakshya Vriddhi : 1. Jupiter in the Ascendant, 7th house or 5th. 2. Natural benefics (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury) in the Ascendant or 7th house or in trikonas. 3. Natural benefics with the atmakaraka. 4. Exalted atmakaraka. 5. Jupiter as the atmakaraka.

Kakshya Hrasa: 1. Occupancy of malefics in the Ascedant or its 7th house. 2. Malefics in 5th and 9th of the Ascendant. 3. Atmakaraka is debilitated. 4. Saturn associated with Ascendant lord or Horalagna lord. 5. Occupancy of Saturn in the 8th house of Ascendant or Horalagna.

56 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology Examine the above rules for Kakshya Vriddhi and Kakshya Hrasa and decide the term of life. In the example Rasi chart Jupiter occupies the 5th house of the Ascendant. Hence by the rule of Kakshya Vriddhi the middle life is increased to long life. The term of short life is 33 years and the term of long life is above 66 years and the term of middle life is from 33 to 66 years. Calculation of Life-Span:

Add and subtract the kakshya years of the planets in the kakshya places to 33 years if middle life is ascertained, or to 66 years if long life is ascertained. Kakshya Years of planets: Sun=3; Moon= I Waxing Moon = 6; Jupiter=6; Exalted Jupiter=12 Mercury=3; Venus=6; Saturn=5 or 6 or 7 Mars=2 or 3 Add the years of benefics and subtract the years of malefics in the kakshya places. Add if the malefics are exalted .Subtract if debilitated or in inimical sign. In the chart-6 of Swamy Vivekananda (1863-1902) the Ascendant is Sagittarius 25d.30m The atmakaraka is the Sun. Hora Lagna is Virgo. 1. Lord of Ascendant is Jupiter is in Libra(movable) Lord of 8th house is Moon in Virgo(dual) So short life is indicated. 2. Ascendant is Sagittarius(dual) Moon is in Kanya(dual). Hence middle life is idicated. 3. Ascendant is Sagittarius(dual) Hora Lagna is Virgo. Hence middle life is indicated. Two of three factors reveal middle life and hence it is confirmed. because of neither Kakshya Vriddhi nor Kakshya Hrasa. The middle life ranges from 33 years 66 years. So 33+3 (Mars in own house the 5th of Ascendant)+6(Jupiter in the 5th house of the 7th of the Ascendant) -3 (Sun the malefic atmakaraka) =39 years. Swamy Vivekananda died at the age of 39 years.

Chart-5 of Pandit Nehru (1889-1964); In the chart of Pandit Nehru (1889-1964) Ascdt is Cancer 24d. 25m and the atmakaraka is Mercury and Hora Lagna is Scorpio. The Ascdt is occupied by the Moon. So longevity is to be ascertained by the Ascdt and the Moon. Ascdt is a movable sign and the Moon is in the movable sign. So long life is ascertained. So 66+6 (Moon in Ascdt) +3(MercuryA.K)+6(Venus)+6(Jupiter)-3(Sun in 5th)-2(Mars) - 7(Saturn)=75 years.

2. Ascdt is Taurus (fixed) Moon in Sagittarius (dual)=long life.

3. Ascdt is Taurus(fixed) and Hora Lagna is Cancer (movable) So middle is indicated. Hence by two factors long life is indicated.

But Saturn is placed in the Kendra, associated with the malefics vizMars and Rahu.Hence the kakshyahrasa and as a result long life is reduced to the middle life. 33+6(fullMoon A.k)+6(Jupiter)+3(Mercury in Ascdt)+6(Venus in the 7th from A.K)-3 (Sun the malefic in the 7th of A.k)=51 years. The native died at the age of 50 years. Calculation of life-span-Vriddha karika method :-

58 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology The following three should be calculated. 1 Longitudes of Ascdt lord and 8th houselord 2. Longitudes of Ascdt and Hora Lagna (savayava) 3. Longitudes of the Moon and the Ascdt. Formulae: 1. Short life= 12+ (30-D).1.1 2. Middle life=33+(30-D).1.1 3. Long life=66+(30-D). 1.1 D=degrees of Ascdt lord, 8th houselord. Hora Lagna, Ascdt, Moon. In the chart of Swami Viveka Nanda( 1863-1902) out of three factors middle life is conformed by two factors viz Ascdt and Hora Lagna, Ascdt and Moon Ascdt.Sagittarius=25d.50m HoraLagna=Sagittarius 26d Moon=5s.18d (for calculation of savayava horalagna see section-2) Middle life= 33+(30-26) 1.1=37.4; 33+(30-18).1.1=45.2 Average=41.3 years. Middle life=33+(30-26).1.1=37.4 .; 33+(30-26). 1.1=37.4 Average=37.4years. Therefore lifespan=41.3+37.4=78.7dived by2=39.3years. In the case of Pandit Nehru Ascdt is Cancer 24d. Moon = 17d. Birth ghatis=14-10 Diurnal duration =32ghatis. HoraLagna=Aquarius.The Moon is in the Ascdt.So the Longevity should be ascertained by the Ascdt and the Moon. Long life=66+(30-24).1.1=72.6 Long life=66+(30-17).1.1=80.3 Average=76.45 So the life-span comes to76 years. Nehruji died at the age of 75years. Longevity-Subsdiary methods: Mcthod-1: If the lord of the 8th house of the Ascdt is in a Kendra -longlife

Longevity 59 If in panapara -middle life. If in apoklima -short life. Ascertain similarly by the 8th house lord from the 7th house of the Ascendant. Method-2- If the 8th house lord of the atmakaraka is in Kendra-long life. If in panapara-middle life. If in apoklima-short life. Ascertain.similarly from the 8th house lord from the 7th house of the atmakaraka. Method-3: 1. Ascdt lord and 8th house lord 2. 8th house and 8th houselord. 3. Moon-sign and 8th houselord from the Moon-Sign. Examine the three factors by movable fixed dual signs and ascertain the Longevity from any two. If the three factors differ declare middle life. Method-4: This method is applicable only if the Ascdt lord is the atmakaraka. Treat the sign occupied by Ascdt lord as Ascdt. Treat the sign occupied by the 8th houselord as Hora Lagna. If the Ascdt is stronger than Hora Lagna count the number of signs from Ascdt to Hora Lagna and divide this numberby 4. If the remainder is 4 long life is indicated. If it is 3 middlelife is indicated. If it is 2 short life is indicated. If it is 1 very short life is indicated. If Hora Lagna is strongerthan the Ascdt count the number of signs from Hora Lagna to the Ascdt. Divide this number by 4and ascertain longevityby the remainder as mentioned above.

Chapter -8 AYUR DASAS

Niryana Soola Dasa- This dasa begins from the Ascdt or its 7th house whichever is stronger. If the Ascdt is stronger than its 7th house begin the Dasa from the Ascdt and the succession of Dasas is direct if the Ascdt is an odd sign or reverse if it is an evensign. If the 7th house is stronger than the Ascdt begin it from the 7th house. And each dasa sign carries 9 years and each antar dasa sign gets 9months.So to begin the Niryana Soola Dasa first ascertain whether the Ascdt is stronger or its 7th house as follows. 1. The one which is occupied by a planet is stronger than the one which is vacant. 2. The one which is occupied by more number of planets is stronger than the onev which is occupied by less. 3. If both are occupied by equal number of planets judge strength by own, exaltation etc. 4. If both are unoccupied by planets judge the strength of Ascdt lord and the 7th house lord. 5. If still the strength is the same the lord attaining degrees should be considered. 6. If the degrees of both are same judge by the prativesika strength. It means thus-An odd sign is stronger if its lord is in the even sign than the odd sign whose lord is in the odd sign.An even sign is stronger if its lord is in an odd sign than the even sign whose lord is in an even sign. Death- inflicting Dasa Signs: 1.5th and 9th dasa signs of Ascdt or its 7th house.whichever begins. 2.5th and 9th dasa signs of Rudra planets. 3. Dasa sign occupied by Prani Rudra if he is a malefic. 4. Dasa sign occupied by Aprani Rudra. 5. Dasa sign occupied or aspected by Mars and the Moon 6. Dasa sign aspected by Saturn and Rahu. 7. Dasa sign aspected or occupied by the

Find out the 8th houselord of the Ascdt and the 8th houselord of 7th of Ascdt.The sronger of thetwo is called the Prani Rudra. The weaker if associated with or aspected by any malefic becomes the Aprani Rudra. Maheswara planet :- The 8th house lord of atmakaraka is called the Maheswara. Judge the strength of the 8th houselord and the 12th house lord of atmakaraka. The stronger of the two becomes a fatal planet. It means the sign occupied by the stronger planet becomes the death-inflicting dasa-sign. If atmakaraka is associated with Rahu or Ketu or if Rahu or Ketu occupies the 8th houseof atmakaraka judge the strength of 6th house lord and the 12th house lord of the atmakaraka, the stronger of the two becomes a fatal planet which means the sign occupied by him becomes death-inflicting. Parental fatality- ( Pitru Niryana Soola Dasa)- Ascertain whether the Ascdt or its 7th house is stronger. Reckon the 9th house directly from the Ascdt or its 7th house whichever is stronger if the Ascdt or its 7th house is an odd sign. But if Ascdt or its 7th house is an even sign reckon the 9th house reversely from the Ascdt or 7th house whichever is stronger. Pitru Niryana Sooladasa begins from the 9th house and the dasa signs run directly whether the 9th house is odd or even. Each dasa sign carries 9 years. 1. Father's death is probable in the dasa-sign. aspected or occupied by the 8th house lord of the 9th house or in the Soola (5th. 9th) dasasign occupied or aspected by the 8th house lord of the 9th house. 2 If the 9th house is connected with Saturn, Mars. Rahu or Ketu by aspect or association death of the father is probable before 12 years age of the native. But this may be averted by the aspect of the Sun or any benefic planet.

But if theAscdt or its 7th house is an even sign reckon the 4th house reversely from it. Matru Niryana Soola Dasa begins from the 4th house and the dasa signs run directly whether the 4th house is odd or even Each dasasign carries 9 years. I. Mother'death is probable in the dasa-sign occupied or aspected by the 8th house lord of the 4th house of Ascdt or in the 5th or 9th dasa-sign occupied or aspected bythe 8th houselord of of the 4th house. 2. If the 4th house is connected with Saturn. Mars, Rahu or Ketu. by aspect or association death of mother is probable before 12 years of the native's age. This may be averted by the Sun or a benefic. BRAHMA-Step-1: Judge the strength of the Ascdt and its 7th house by the principles mentionrd above.under Niryana Soola Dasa .. Step-2 ; Find out the lords of 6th, 8th, and 12th houses of the Ascdt or its 7th house whichrver is stronger. Step-3. The stronger of the three lords if placed in Ascdt or 3rd or 5th becomes Brahma. If the 7th house is stronger than Ascdt, the strongest of the three lords viz 6th. 8th, 12th reckoned from the 7th house becomes Brahma if placed in the 7th, 9th, or 11th of Ascdt. But according to Neelakantta Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra Sagittarius Aquarius are mentioned. for the eligibility of Brahma. STHIRA DASA: This is another impotant Ayur Dasa. This begins from the sign occupied by Brahma andthedasasigns run directly whether the sign occupied by Brahma is odd or even. The movable fixed and dual signs carry 7. 8. 9 years respectively. Probable period of death in Sthira dasa : Pointers- Decide the term of life whether long middle or short. If the term of life is in the horoscopic chart is short judge the first four dasa-signs from the sign occupied by Brahma. If the term of life is middle judge the 5th. 6th 7th 8th dasa-signs. If the term of life is longjudge the 9th, 1 Oth 11th 12th dasa signs. Makec use of the following principles to time the probable death-inflicting dasa sign and antardasasign in the term of life ascertained.

Sagittarius= Jupiter Rahu, From 10-11-1936 to 10-1 1-1979(ie Capricorn to Virgo each carrying 9years). Death happened in Virgo-Sagittarius on 21-5- 1975. Virgo is occupied by the Moon and Mars (rule-5) and Sagittarius is occupied by Jupiter and Rahu and aspected by the Moon and Mars. The 8th house lord of Ascdt is Mercury and the 8th houselord of the 7th house of Ascdtis Jupiter. So Jupiter becomes the Prani Rudra while the Aprani Rudra is Mercury. Pitru NiryanaSoola Dasa- See the example chart in Section- 1. Ascdt is Scoroio occupied by Saturn while the 7th house is occupied by two planets viz Sun, Mercury. The 7th house is stronger than the Ascdt. The 7th house Taurus is an even sign and therefore the 9th house of the 7th reversely is Virgo. So Pitru Niryana Soola Dasa begins from Virgo. carrying 9 years. Virgo

64 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology is aspected by Mars (8thlord of Virgo) Rahu and Ketu. The native's father died in Virgo-Virgo ie in October 1927. Matru Niryana Soola Dasa :- In the above chart from the 7th house of the Ascdt the 4th house reversely is Aquarius. So Matru Niryanasola Dasa begins from Aquarius each dasasign carrying 9 years. The native's mother died in November 1981 ie Leo-Leo. Leo is aspected by The Moon aspecte by three malefics viz Saturn, Sun, Mercury. Illustration for Sthira Dasa : In the chart of Pandit Nehru (Chart-5) Ascdt is Cancer. The 6th, 8th, 12th lords are Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury respectively. Jupiter is the strongest of the three and is placed in Sagittarius an odd sign. So Jupiter becomes Brahma. hence Sthira Dasa begins from Sagittarius occupied by Brahma.

So the dasa-signs are Sagittarius=9, Capricorn=7,Aquarius=8,Pisces=9,Aries=7 Taurus=8, Gemini=9, Cancer=7, Leo=7, Virgo=9. Nehruji died in Virgo-Sagittarius ie on 27-5-1964 (see the principles in Sthira Dasa).

Ascdt=Scorpio. Since the 9th house of the Ascdt is Cancer which is in the samapada group, the dasa-signs begin from the Ascdt (scorpio) reversely. Sothe dasa-signs are reversely Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer Gemini, Taurus Aries etc. Scorpio=7yrs, (because Mars the lord of scorpio is in Gemini-8-I=7 This is because Scorpio is in the oja pada group. Count is direct.) Libra=8yrs (.because Venus the lord of Libra is in Gemini). Virgo .= 4yrs (because Mercury is in Taurus and Virgo is in the samapada group. So the count reversely 5-1 =4 thus dasa-varsha could be counted for the 12 dasa-signs. Method-2 of Chara Dasa- This opens from the Ascdt and the succession of the dasa-signs from the Ascdt is direct and regular if the Ascdt is an odd and cardinal sign. The succession of the dasa-signs is reverse and regular from the Ascdt if the Ascdt is even and cardinal. If the Ascdt is an odd and fixed sign

This number is the number of years of the dasa-sign.If the lord of the dasa-sign is in the even sign count the number of the dasa-signs from the lord of the dasa-sign to the dasa-sign reversely. This number is the number of years of the dasa-sign.The dasa-sign occupied by its own lord gets 12years. The convention of the planetary exaltation or debilitation should not be considered in the count. For example-If Mars occupies Aries, give 12 years to it If Mars is in Taurus give 2 years to Aries das-sign by the count reversely from Taurus to Aries. If Mars is in Gemini, Aries dasa-sign gets 11 years Illustration-See the Rasi Chart-1 (Section-1). Ascdt=Scorpio. So Chara Dasa.begins from Scorpio. The das-signs are Scorpio=6.

Dasa-Varsha in Chara Dasa in female horoscope- The count of Years of each dasa-sign should be from the lord of the dasa-sign to the dasa-sign by the prakriti chakra. If the dasa-sign is an odd sign count the number of signs from the lord of the dasa-sign to the dasa-sign directly. This number minus one is the number of years of the dasa-sign. If the dasa-sign is an even sign count the number of signs from the lord of the dasa- sign to the dasa-sign reversely. This number minus one is the number of years of the dasa-sign. Dasa-Sign occupied by its own lord gets 12 years. Dasa-sign with its lord in its 7th house gets 10 years. Planetary exaltation or debilitation need not be considered in the count of dasa-years.

If the 9th house of the Ascdt is occupied by any of the three mentioned above begin this Dasafrom the 9th house. If the starting Dasa is a movable sign, the Dasa-signs run regularly. If the starting dasa-sign is a fixed sign the dasa-signs run in the order of every 6th. If the starting dasa-sign is dual sign the dasa-signs run in the order of Kendras, Panaparas next and then the apoklimas follow. If the beginning dasa- sign is an odd sign the dasa-signs run direct. If the beginning dasa-sign is an even sign the dasa-signs run reversely See the Rasi Chart-I in section-1. The Ascdt is Scorpio. But its 5th house is Pisces, occupied by Jupiter. So CharaParyaya Dasa begins from Pisces. which is even and dual. Sign. So the dasa-signs are Pisces, Sagittarius, Virgo, Gemini, Aquarius, Scorpio, Leo, Taurus Capricorn,etc Dasa-years- (Atmakaraka=Mars) 1. Pisces(Mars)=10yrs 2.

Cancer (Venus)=2. 12. Aries(Rahu)=2. N.B: The Dasa years are counted from the Dasa-sign to the Atmakaraka and planets in the Kendras, Panaparas and Apoklimas from the Atmakaraka. The count should be direct if the dasa-sign

If the commencing dasa-sign is odd and cardinal the 1st, 3rd. 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th are the bahyadasa-signs of the first six das-signs (dwara) and the same bahya dasa-signs are repeated for the next six dwaradasa-signs.

Results in Chara paryaya Dasa: 1. If both dwara and bahya dasa-signs are afflicted by malefics. troubles like imprisonment,

fevers etc are probable.

2. Whether the dwara or bahya dasa-sign though occupied by malefics does not create troubles.if the malefic owns the dwara

or bahya dasa-sign. 3.The malefic in the dwara or bahya dasa-sign if associated with Jupiter does not create trouble.

4.The results of Trikona Dasa may be judged in Chara paryaya

Dasa.

STHIRA PARYA DASA :- Ascertain whether the Ascdt or its 7th house is stronger as is done in Chara paryaya Dasa. Sthira paryaya Dasa opens from the Ascdt or its 7th house whichever is stronger. So the first dasa-sign is either the Ascdt or its 7th house. The second dasa-sign is the 7th sign of the first dasa-sign. The third dasa-sign is the second sign of the first dasa-sign.The fourth dasa-sign is the 2nd of the 7th sign.The fifth dasa-sign is the 3rd sign of the first dasa-sign. Thus the 12 dasa-signs may be written .. The order of the dasa-signs should be according to Prakriti

chakra.

In female horoscope, Sthira paryaya Dasa opens from the 4th house of the Ascdt or 7th house whichever is stronger. The order of the dasa-signs is according to vikriti chakra. The succession of the dasa signs mentioned may be understood from the tables of Dwara and Bahya given below for the Ascdts (Aries&Taurus). The rest may be similarly understood.

Phalitha Dasas 77 The dwara and bahya dasa-signs of the rest of the Ascdts could be understood similarly. Dasa-Varsha: The count should be from the dasa-sign to the lord of the dasa-sign by prakriti chakra, like the lords of the dasa- signs in Chara paryaya Dasa. The lords are the Atmakaraka and the planets in kendras, panaparas and apoklimas ... Illustration :- Rasi chart-1 in Section-1. Ascdt=Scorpio Atmakaraka=Mars ... The Ascdt is occupied by Saturn while its 7th house is occupied by Sun and Mercury. So Sthira paryaya Dasa begins from the 7th house (Taurus). because the 7th house is occupied by two planets while the Ascdt is occupied by one planet. So Sthira paryadasa begins from Taurus. The dasa signs are: Taurus(Mars)=12, Scorpio(venus)=6,Aries(Rahu)=3, Libra(ketu)=3, Pisces(Jupiter)=I2, Virgo(Moon)=9, Aquarius(Saturn)=10, Leo(Sun)=10, Capricorn(Mercury)=9, Cancer(Mars)=2, Sagittarius(Venus)=7, Gemini (Rahu)=12. TRIKONA DASA:

Male Horoscope: Find the strongest of the Ascendant, the 5th and the 9th house by A.K. Jupiter and Mercury by association or aspect. Trikona Dasa begins from the strongest among the Ascendant, 5th and 9th houses and the order of the dasa signs runs by the Padakrama. If the strongest is an even sign, Trikona dasa begins from its Sammukha sign and the order of the dasa signs runs by the Padakrama according to the Cardinal, Fixed and dual nature of the commencing dasa sign. For. example, the strongest of the Ascendant, 5th and 9th houses in Male horoscope is Aries. Then the dasa signs are Aries to Pisces in the direct order. Suppose the strongest is Taurus, the dasa signs are Libra to Virgo in the direct order. Suppose the strongest is Gemini, the dual sign, then the dasa signs are Gemini, Libra. Aquarius. Cancer. Scorpio. Pisces, Leo, Sagittarius, Aries. Virgo, Capricom. Taurus.

78 A Manual of Jaimini Astrology- Suppose the strongest sign is Cancer. then the dasa signs are Aquarius. Cancer, Sagittarius. Taurus, Libra, Pisces, Leo. Capricorn, Gemini, Scorpio, Aries, Virgo. Thus the dasa signs can be found out from the commencing dasa signs in the direct and Padakrama order. Female Horoscope: If the strongest of the ascendant, 5th house and 9th house is an odd sign, take its Sammukha sign to begin Trikona dasa. If the strongest is the even sign, begin Trikona dasa from it. In both the cases, since the commencing dasa sign is even, the dasa signs run in the reverse and Padakrama order according to the cardinal, fixed and dual nature of the commencing dasa sign.

Dwara, Bahya signs in Trikona dasa: The Dwara, bahya signs for the cardinal and fixed ascendants are same as those of the cardinal and fixed ascendants in Charaparyayadasa. But for dual signs the Bahya signs differ as follows:

Dasa varsha in Trikona Dasa: The count should be by Prakriti chakra. Count the number of signs from the dasa signs to the preceeding sign of the sign occupied by the dasa sign-lord. This number is the number of the years of the dasa-sign. The count should be direct from the dasa sign if it is odd or reverse If it is even. Dasa sign occupied by its lord gets 12 years. Dasa sign with its Lord in its 7th gets I0 years. If the dasa sign lord is exalted. add I year to the count. If the dasa sign lord is debilitated subtract 1 year from the count. Illustration :- Rasi Chart-1 Ascdt=Scorpio=Saturn Sagittarius=Ketu, Capricorn=Moon .Pisces=Jupiter, Taurus=Sun. Mercury Gemini=Mars, Venus, Rahu The 5th Pisces occupied by Jupiter is the strongest. So the Trikona Dasa should start from Pisces.but it is an even sign. So Trikona Dasa should begin from the sammukha sign.Sagittarius (male horoscope). So the dasa- signs arc Sagittarius. Aries.

Phalitha Dasas 83

Reckoning of Tara Dasa- Tara Dasa commences from Tara Lagna and the order of dasa- signs from Tara Lagna is direct if the Tara Lagna is an odd sign. Aries. Gemini. Leo. Libra. Scorpio, Aquarius are the six odd signs. TaraLagna begins from Tara Lagna and the order of the dasa-signs is reverse if Tara Lagna is an even sign.Taurus Cancer. Virgo. Scorpio. Capricorn. Pisces are the six even signs.Each dasa-sign commencing from Tara Lagna gets 9 years. and each antar dasa-sign gets 9 months. Antar dasa-signs in Tara Dasa. 1 .The antar dasa-signs of the dasa-signs run direct if the atmakaraka (or Saturn) is placed in the odd sign of the ojapada group,but reverse if the atmakaraka(or Saturn) is placed in the even sign of the ojapada group. 2.The antar dasa-signs of the dasa-signs run direct if the atmakaraka(or Saturn) is placed in the even sign of the samapada group but reverse if the atmakaraka (or aSatur)is placed in the odd sign of the samapada group. Ojapada Group=Aries. Taurus. Gemini. Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius. Sama pada Group=Cancer, Leo, Virgo Capricorn. Aquarius, Pisces. Calculation of Tara Lagna: Convert the elapsed Vimsottari dasa years at the time of birth into months. Divide this number by Vimsottari dasa year constant (Sun=6, Moon=10, Mars=7, Rahu=18. Jupiter=16, Saturn=19 Mercury=17, Ketu=7. Venus=20.) The quotient+1 when counted from the Ascdt gives Tara Lagna. Bur for Ketu count reversely from the Ascdt to get Tara Lagna. Illustration=Bor on 25-4-1969 Ascdt =Scorpio Atmakaraka = Mercury. Elapsed vimsottari dasayears=6 or 72 months. This w hen divided by 17 we get the quotient4 +1=5. So we get Pisces the 5th house from the Ascdt. So Pisces is the Tara Lagna occupied by exalted Venus. Hence the dasa-signs are Pisces Aquarius. Capricorn. Sagittarius. Scorpio Libra etc.
